stuck in Ohio...

Hi everyone! Sorry I have not written anything in so long, I actually forgot I had a blog until my Grandpa Slater reminded me :) So, by the title of this post, I am sure you can all guess that my flight out of Ohio was cancelled, but I bet the question is...what am I doing over there?! I just went for the weekend to a National conference for Mortar Board Senior Honor Society that I am president of. It has been a good weekend learning all about the organization and its ideals (Scholarship, Leadership, and Service). I am excited to go back and start the year building up our chapter because it could use some improvements. I have written down goals for the year, and I cannot wait to see them happen!! It is great to a have a group to implement service projects with because so much more can be done.

So, a little update on what has been going on in my world. I was a bridesmaid in a wedding last weekend. It was beautiful, and so was my friend getting married! I met her my freshman year of college, and I was honored to be in her wedding. It is only the beginning of the weddings to come; next weekend I am headed to Seattle for my cousin William's wedding! It's crazy to think I am getting to that age, although I am unlike these two because I do not believe that is in my future any time soon. Sorry to disappoint any of you, although I am sure you do not mind. There is a lot to see and do before I am ready for that.

Well, I have an anatomy midterm to study for....that is one nice thing about being stuck in a hotel. I have to study! I will try to do this more often, so you do not miss anything too important because I am sure I am forgetting a few things. Oh! there is one cool story...the other night I went to dinner with some friends and I was just so amazed by the group I was with because we were all from so many different walks of life. We all have different beliefs and backgrounds; one is from Kuwait, another from South Korea, and still another with a very different life story than mine. I love the diversity you get on a college campus! It is probably one of my favorite things at this point of my life. I just called my dad the other day 30 minutes before a final unable to concentrate because all I could think about was how I wanted to have an international career. It will be interesting to see where I find myself five, ten years from now, but I am not in a rush to get there. I am enjoying myself right were I am. Love to you all!
